Each year, the Town of Estes Park's tree board sponsors an Arbor Day celebration. The community is invited to attend the event on Friday, April 26, at the Estes Park Elementary School Library, 1505 Brodie Avenue. Following a full day of student education and activities, the public is encouraged to join the celebration in the school library from 2:15 to 3:30 p.m. The afternoon will include presentations from the tree board, Rocky Mountain National Park Superintendent Vaughn Baker, honoring the winners of the tree ring counting contest, a tree planting, and more.

This year's theme is "Plant. Grow. Breathe." Arbor Day provides an opportunity to plant trees, celebrate new growth and education, and breathe fresh life into our community.
